Was I Sexually Assaulted Quiz

Questions: 15 · 10 minutes
1. What role did feared relationship or social consequences play in what happened?
No feared consequence affected my decision.
I privately worried about disappointing them or losing the relationship, though they did not pressure me with that fear.
Prior patterns of anger or rejection made me expect conflict if I refused, although no consequence was stated then.
They stated or implied a threat such as breakup, humiliation, outing, rumors, punishment, or retaliation if I did not comply.
2. Did the contact cause pain or physical injury?
I experienced no unwanted pain, injury, or physical aftereffects.
There was brief discomfort, and the contact stopped or changed as soon as it became apparent.
Pain or discomfort continued because it was not recognized or checked, but I had no known injury.
I was injured, struck, choked, bleeding, or left needing or considering medical care.
3. Did a difference in age, authority, status, housing, money, care, or employment affect your ability to choose?
There was no relevant power imbalance, or it was handled without leverage or pressure.
The difference made speaking up harder, although the person did not use it as leverage.
They hinted that approval, access, opportunity, housing, care, or another benefit depended on cooperation.
They used authority or dependency to obtain sexual contact that I did not freely choose.
4. If a caregiver, authority figure, or support person knew or had reason to know about the situation, how did they respond?
This did not apply, or they took reasonable steps to listen, protect me, and help me access support.
They tried to help, but poverty, unavailable care, distance, or other access barriers limited what they could do.
They minimized the concern, delayed action, or failed to follow through despite having realistic options.
They knowingly enabled access, retaliated, threatened me, or prevented me from seeking protection or help.
5. What role did fear of physical harm play?
There was no physical threat, intimidating display, or fear of harm.
Their tone or body language made me uneasy, although no threat was made.
Based on their anger or prior behavior, I feared a physical reaction even though they did not state one then.
They threatened harm to me or someone else, displayed a weapon, or used violence to obtain compliance.
6. Were your stated conditions about the type of sexual contact, protection, or other boundaries followed?
The contact stayed within the conditions and boundaries I freely chose.
There was a misunderstanding, but it was corrected before the boundary was crossed.
My condition was repeatedly challenged or renegotiated until the boundary became difficult to maintain.
A sexual act occurred, or an agreed condition was knowingly removed or ignored, against my stated boundary.
7. How possible did it feel to leave the setting?
I could leave, and no one interfered when I wanted to do so.
An unfamiliar place or transport issue made me hesitate, but the person did not interfere.
Control of transport, privacy, or access to my phone made leaving feel difficult, though I was not physically stopped.
Someone blocked or locked an exit, restrained me, or took keys or a phone specifically to prevent me from leaving or getting help.
8. How did the other person respond to your body language during the contact?
I was engaged and able to respond, with no signs of distress or withdrawal.
I became quiet or tense, and the person noticed, paused, or checked in.
I froze or withdrew, and the person continued without checking what I wanted.
I cried, pushed away, visibly resisted, or showed clear distress, and the person continued.
9. If you wanted to pause or stop after contact began, what happened?
I did not want to stop, or my request to pause or stop was respected immediately.
I wanted a pause but found it difficult to communicate that clearly.
I expressed discomfort indirectly, and the other person continued without checking in promptly.
I said stop, pulled away, or withdrew consent, and the person continued.
10. Before the sexual contact, was there a pattern of secrecy, isolation, or gradual boundary testing?
No; there was no concerning pattern of secrecy, isolation, or boundary testing.
Some unusually intense attention or sexualized conversation made me uneasy, without isolation or deception.
They gradually normalized secrecy or boundary crossing, or reduced my access to supportive people.
They deliberately isolated, deceived, or conditioned me in order to facilitate sexual contact I did not freely choose.
11. Thinking about the sexual contact, how did your initial agreement—or lack of agreement—feel?
I actively and freely agreed, without pressure or fear.
I went along while hesitant, and the other person may not have recognized that hesitation.
I felt unable to voice what I wanted, so my participation did not reflect a clear, free choice.
I did not agree, said no, or had a refusal that was ignored.
12. How did the other person respond when you showed reluctance or lack of interest?
They accepted my response without trying to change it.
They asked again, but accepted my final response without retaliation.
They used guilt, sulking, repeated requests, or emotional pressure that wore down my resistance.
They continued coercive pressure until I felt I had no meaningful choice about sexual contact.
13. At the time, how capable were you of understanding the situation and making a voluntary choice?
I was awake, aware, and able to understand and choose freely.
Some impairment, confusion, or exhaustion made my choices less clear than usual.
I was very intoxicated, disoriented, or affected by significant memory gaps.
I was asleep, unconscious, or otherwise incapable of making or communicating a choice when contact occurred.
14. Were alcohol, medication, or other substances controlled or interfered with by someone else?
No; any substance use was my informed choice, and no one interfered with it.
Someone encouraged me to consume more than I wanted, but I retained control of what I took.
Someone repeatedly pressured substance use or controlled access to my drink in a way that concerned me.
A substance was given without my knowledge or consent, or there were concrete signs that my drink or dose may have been tampered with.
15. Did the person use their body or physical force to control your movement?
No; I could move freely throughout the interaction.
Their closeness or size made me uneasy, but they did not use it to restrict me.
They positioned their body so resisting or moving away felt difficult.
They held me down, restrained me, blocked me, or physically forced my body into position.
